Stargaze by the Ocean with Boardwalk Astronomy
Free and open to all!
Join the Back Bay Amateur Astronomers for a magical night under the stars as part of our summer Boardwalk Astronomy Series. Telescopes will be set up along the Virginia Beach Boardwalk near the 24th Street Stage, offering a unique chance to explore the night sky—right by the ocean.
Arrive before sunset to safely view the Sun through solar scopes, then stick around as darkness falls to see the Moon and other celestial wonders up close.
This free, family-friendly event happens five times each summer (weather permitting), so don’t miss your chance to experience the beach like never before.
